Legit. My granny would pin her smalls out on the lavender bushes to dry, not the line. And made lavender bags every year to deter moths.
Ooooo I like that!! I need a lavender bush, it's my favourite smell! But my balcony gets almost no direct sunlight, so I don't think it would survive lol!
But if/when I move, I'll be pinning my smalls all over that lavender haha
So many different kinds too, I think if I get my own garden I'll plant a special lavender garden of all the different kinds with a little blue ageratum border. There are so many lovely colours and shapes. https://www.gardenmandy.com/types-of-lavender-plants/
I got a double lavender plant earlier this year. It hasn't flowered since I planted it, but its so pretty. I also have established English and French lavenders that I harvest for little smelly wardrobe bags.
